Their chocolate Italian ice and limencello gelato are really unbelievable. But really, they do everything well: lemon chicken, chicken marsala, fried pork tenderloin. 続きを読む
This small, unassuming Humboldt Park taqueria makes the perfect grab-and-go meal: chorizo, scrambled eggs and a well-balanced salsa. 続きを読む
This charming Colombian spot serves terrific meat at affordable prices. Charred just short of burnt, the chicken is tear-off-the-bone tender, and comes with an awesome chimichurri. 続きを読む
Made in the Northern Thai style, this addictive cold-weather stew comes brimming with tender chunks of braised pork shoulder, julienned ginger and a fistful of chopped cilantro. 続きを読む
I love the pierogi at Podhalanka in Wicker Park. The place looks and feels like a VFW hall and the service can be spotty, but the pierogi are the closest thing to my grandma's in the city. 続きを読む
This is another terrific mash-up of Korean and Latin American street food: savory and fresh, with a myriad of textures and flavors. It’s affordable to boot. 続きを読む
This is an awesome dish on a cold day. Santouka, located inside Mitsuwa Marketplace, is in the Chicago suburbs of Arlington Heights, but it's worth the drive! 続きを読む
The cheeseburger at Edzo's is simple, easy, and delicious. They serve crispy, thin patties using meat from local farmers 続きを読む
The barbecue wings at Crisp are super crispy and juicy. They coat the wings in Korean fermented chili paste. 続きを読む
Their food is very fresh and they offer a lot of vegetables and variations for your sandwich. I get it spicy with tomato, tabuli, Jerusalem salad, tahini, hummus, and sambal. 続きを読む
I'm a little old-school on this one, but I love the Blockbuster with hot and sweet peppers and well-made deli meat. Add a Royal Crown Cola to wash it down. It’s a family business through and through. 続きを読む
They snap! Natural casings! Bill is the best. This is a true Chicago staple. 続きを読む
The meat is tender, juicy, and perfectly spiced. The warm homemade pita is a great complement to the creamy hummus, too! I like to get mine with extra falafel. 続きを読む
This roast duck curry rocks. The salty richness is offset by sweet pineapple and a bracing heat from the Thai chili. A side of sticky rice is essential to soften the delicious impact. 続きを読む
So simple and so unbelievably good. The meat is flavorful and juicy, the skin is crisp, and the rice is the perfect vehicle to soak up the delicious juices. 続きを読む
Even with my background (fine dining, BBQ, and Southern cuisines), Mexican food has my heart. My favorite Mexican dish is this deep-fried burrito from Tony’s. 続きを読む
Bari serves awesome old-school Italian subs, sourcing their bread from the bakery next door. The subs are giant and inexpensive. I love the Italian sub, but occasionally I just need the meatball. 続きを読む
A big bowl of Tank’s phở is delicious, but the catfish really gets my taste buds going. If I’m feeling really gluttonous, I’ll get the catfish and pork simmered in a clay pot. 続きを読む
This juicy roast chicken has lots of heat and is always perfectly seasoned. It is harbored safely in brick oven-baked garlic naan. It’s like finding a treasure. 続きを読む
It's my favorite beef in the city. I get hot peppers and ask for it wet. They also have Filbert's sodas, so I get two of the grape flavor, which pairs nicely with the sandwich. 続きを読む
This little spot may be located right around the corner from the Gaztrowagon storefront, but it’s small-town Mexico dining at its finest. I eat it with the green salsa. 続きを読む
At this old-school dinner in the heart of the West Loop, the patty melt literally melts in your mouth. Tip: Make sure you order a side of pickles. 続きを読む
Honey Butter Fried Chicken's sides are phenomenal. Their chicken is juicy and crispy, and the honey butter adds a surprising layer of sweetness. 続きを読む
This is the best bánh mì in Chicago. House-baked bread, pâté, ham, pork roll... delicious. 続きを読む
The quintessential example of a Chicago hot dog served at a Chicago classic. No. Ketchup. Ever. 続きを読む
Huge and delicious, this doughnut melts in your mouth. Only a hot, fresh coffee will slake my thirst after that. 続きを読む
Naem Khao Tod at Rainbow Thai is the most exciting thing I’ve eaten in a long time. You have to ask for it by name as it’s not on the menu. 続きを読む
This taco spot is run by a guy who used to work at Frontera Grill. They do a few tortas and burritos, but their tacos are super solid. The fish tacos are easily the best in town. 続きを読む
What I love about Al’s Italian Beef (and you have to get it wet) is that it’s a big soggy mess that requires a minimal amount of chewing. 続きを読む
This was my favorite food while I was at Kendall College (and on days when I ditched class!). In my opinion, it's the best barbecue around Chicago. 続きを読む
I think this is the best phở in the city. It's my go-to when I'm feeling under the weather or slightly hungover! 続きを読む
All the tacos are amazing but I can't get the chorizo, made in-house, outta my head. 続きを読む
With thousand island dressing and sauerkraut on a pumpernickel bun, this sandwich is so spot-on that you almost actually think that there's corned beef on it, instead of fried chicken. 続きを読む
This is a sloppy mess of a sandwich, but it’s so good. When you take fried plantains and sandwich them around pork and garlic mayo, what could be bad? 続きを読む
I crave this flavor-packed lunch: crispy French bread, perfectly seasoned pork, daiko, cilantro, carrots, and serrano chilies. 続きを読む
It's been 15 years and it’s always the same: juicy duck with tender, wide, fresh noodles. Pair it with Chinese broccoli, oyster sauce, and barbecue pork, and you’ll eat like a king for $15. 続きを読む
